For the latter two, three things quickly become apparent. First, there is just a little light shining through the densely packed trees, suggesting they are not very deep and getting through should not take a significant amount of time. Secondly, they are so thickly packed that certainly nobody can ride through on horse back, perhaps people can ride through on pony back, and Mystie should be able to ride through on Bubba back.Finally, a single plant dominates the ground cover under the trees:[ATTACH]63619[/ATTACH][sblock=Wahyu]Wahyu is easily able to keep Detect Magic running for 3 rounds. In those three rounds, he starts detecting magic, but realizes it's Jonas he's detecting, who has moved into the field of view to examine the situation. Eventually he can make the trees out for what they are, and doesn't suspect any magic about them.[/sblock][sblock=Jonas]The majority plant you are seeing is Stinging Nettles. Wearing sufficient protective clothing is enough to alleviate the threat they present. Certainly, as long as you don't go rubbing your elbows along the ground, you'd be fine. However, many of your friends are not as protectively clothed or nearly as tall, and certainly horse legs and dog paws are vulnerable. If there is a safe route through here that doesn't require protecting all exposed surfaces, it will take a more time than your initial assessment to determine.[/sblock]</blockquote>
